Actually yeh, that's the worst thing. C***s out enjoying public spaces. Also, people thinking it's acceptable to wear shorts. This is Britain ffs, unless you're playing sports you should always be wearing trousers.

I'm in the "fuck off moaning about the weather now that we finally get some summer" camp.
Was out in a t-shirt until well past midnight. Lovely weather.
My bedroom was preheated to a balmy 27.5 degrees, which was not ideal and opening the window didn't noticeably cool it down, although it did bring mosquitoes in.
Still. Glorious sunshine!

Yes it's hot, and yes it sucks to not get as much sleep at night, and yes, I am sweating most of the day and spend all my time at home sat in front of a fan...but for fucks sake, the sun is amazing, it makes everything seem so much better.

I definitely feel like I'm solar powered, and yes am one of those happy idiots in the sunshine, enjoying the beautiful public spaces we have in London and wearing shorts all the time.

If you think shorts are only for sports then you're an idiot, and if you think working in a full suit all day in the blistering heat is fun that you're a cretin

I hate being too hot, and would rather it was sunny with a moderate temperature and a nice breeze at all times but that's not going to happen, so enjoy what is the finest summer we've had for years.

It's not fun, but it is the correct, British thing to do.

Well I must be a very un-British Brit then. And couldn't give a toss about it. Sweating in a three piece (if you're wearing a suit do it properly) on a hot day is not my idea of good times...and also has no bearing on how well I do my job (though I wouldn't meet clients wearing shorts, that's a step too far)

This. I don't mind a bit of sun, but as it is it's too hot to go out and enjoy it.

Edit: For those claiming shorts aren't proper British attire, I don't think I can think of a more British set of clothing than shorts, jumper and dress shoes. Basically private school attire just scaled up.
